If the rumours are true, and EpII has a "simultaneous" release date across the world, NZ will be the first country to have public screenings!

The dates rumoured on the TF.N news page are May 17 or May 22.

HOWEVER wasn't Aus & NZ one day "behind" the rest of the English speaking world with the release of the TPM DVD, so we didn't get a jump on everyone else due to our proxinity to the international dateline?

I'm really hoping it's going to be out before my 21st birthday, on May 29 2002. That way, instead of having to pay for a stupid party, in which everyone turns up, drinks, and embarasses you by dragging out all those old baby photos, I can just have a private screening of Ep 2. Then I'll 'forget' to invite anyone but myself
